The easiest way to get your Jeep JL Wrangler running on a set of 35" tires or 37" tires on a Rubicon, is to install a small 2.5" lift much like the kind that EVO Manufacturing makes. In addition to coming with 2.5" coil spacers, the EVO Stage 4 Boost Kit also comes with bump stop extensions, shock relocation brackets, a new pair of rear sway bar links and front brake line extension brackets. Depending on what your needs are, optional overland control arm drop brackets are available, as are replacement heavy duty adjustable control arms for those of you who intend to run taller lift coils and/or shocks in the future. In this 'HOW TO' episode of the JL JOURNAL, we'll show you just how easy it is to install the EVO lift, with a set of their adjustable control arms and with just a basic set of tools. Of course, the instructions in this video could easily help you install any lift of this size and/or type, including ones made by Mopar, Rubicon Express, Rough Country and the like. We hope you enjoy the video and find the information in it to be useful.

Great step by step video!!! Top notch!!!
Thank you, so glad you enjoyed it :)
This is going to be the new video that everyone refers to when installing their own lift, very well done!
Thank you, we're so glad that you found the video to be helpful :)
Everytime I watched Wayalife videos I want to do some upgrade to my Wrangler
LOL
I'm glad you are making these videos now. Your web instructions were always great but this is better!
Glad to hear you're liking our install videos :)
Best JL content on RUclips - keep it up!
Thank you, we really do appreciate it :)
What an undertaking. Great job. I have a feeling putting the video together took a lot more time than the install. Great video capturing all the different angles and capturing everything you're describing. Can't imagine editing process and putting all the clips together. Well done and great job to the one handling the camera.
LOL!! Oh yeah, filming makes everything take 4x longer to do and editing took about a week.
I just want to say thank you for all of the videos you put out there. I literally I just finished putting on a 3.5inch lift with springs and all 8 control arms. You videos have been a tremendous help.. thanks!!
Awesome, we're so glad to hear it :)
Dude, great work here. Killing it with the details and proper work. Keep it up sir.
Excellent. Love the extremely descriptive and well thought out tutorials Eddie. And the filming is very good too!
I love getting the notifications when one of your videos come up!!
what a great step by step video!
LOL!! Glad to hear it :)
Awesome video mate!!!
I always just get rid of 5th wheel
OMG! This was awesome. I can’t wait to get my ordered JL in too. Your videos are encouraging and I can’t wait to get to work on mine. Great step by step directions. Keep the videos coming.
Awesome, so glad to hear it!
Your moddings are pretty impressive and truly awesome. Your vast knowledge and expertise makes your vehicles truly aggressive. Great video.
Thank you. We're so happy to hear you find our videos to be helpful.
This an awesome detailed video I can always refer back to as a professional guide when I get my Jeep.
Awsome!😎👍
Thank you. We're so glad to know it's been helpful to you.
Man, are these videos well made.
I am really impressed with this channel!
LOL - thank you, we're so glad to hear it :)
As always Eddie and Cindy, great information and a nice budget boost to the looks of Jet Li, see you out there.
Thank you. We're so glad that you found this episode to be informative :)
I’m only 16 and I can’t wait to get my first Jeep you inspire me. Great video
Awesome, that's great to hear :)
Wow, such a great video. You explain things so clearly. Can't wait to get a JL. Keep up the great work! Subscribed.
Thank you, glad to hear you enjoyed the video.
Wow. The transformation is pretty amazing. Lots of steps. But definitely worth the effort. Should make EJS a blast this year!
Definitely a lot of work but I think it came out well :)
Excellent video. I enjoyed the fact that you absolutely KNEW the nomenclature to everything!
Thank you. So glad you found our video to be useful and informative :)
Great video. Thank you again for taking the time to share. It's awesome that 37" tires fit with room on such a conservative lift. I look forward to seeing how it rides and what your driving impressions are... You're making me want a JL more and more every day. I hope Jeep is giving you some support as I'm sure your videos have done more to showcase the capability of the jeep than all their ads combined.
LOL!! We're flattered that you would say as much. I don't think Jeep even knows who we are.
Wayalife maybe we need a wayalife subscriber letter campaign...
absolutely the best....most explicit...EASY to understand video.. THANKYOU !
Thank you, so glad to hear it :)
$50 is a drop in the bucket compared to the money you have saved me by watching your videos! I have learned SOOOO much from you. Please keep up the good work, say thanks to your wife for me and give you puppy a hug.
We're truly humbled by your generous gift, thank you! Happy to know our videos have been helpful to you.
I am new / novice to The Jeep Wrangler and the JL edition. Your videos have been incredibly helpful. Thank you very much for taking the time to make these very thorough videos and making it a little easier for us novice DIY guys. Keep up the great work.
Congratulations on your new Jeep and so glad that we could be of help :)
Fantastic video. Your directions make it really easy to follow. Thank you.
So glad to hear it :)
I love your JL. Its truly BADASS!
I have to live vicariously through you until I get my own sweet Jeep. Looks great man!
Well, glad to hear we can at least help you out in that way :)
This looks absolutely beautiful! I would take this Jeep 100% how you have it, love to!
LOL! Thanks :)
Exemplary video. Great visual and verbal step by step content along with tools used. Very well done.
Thank you very much!
EXCELLENT job man! Really well done. You broke down every little detail so that even a novice like me can follow it. I still won't, but you've inspired me. Lol, I'l just leave it to the pros.
LOL!! I guarantee you that you could do it yourself following this video.
Man, EVO really has their lifts made so well, you can always see just how well they've thought of everything. That trick with the duct tape and the wrench to hold the nut in place, that is awesome, I'm so using that in the future. Great video!
LOL!! Glad to hear I was able to share one of my many tricks :)
Hey, Wayalife, your link doesn't show the same kit you used. Can you link the other parts? I am trying to put 37 inch tires on my rig.
Great instructions! The new Jeep looks just right.
Thanks, glad you liked it :)
Looks amazing!!
Very well done and extremely detailed. Thank you for your hard work.
Glad to hear you found our video to be informative :)
Very detailed video
Love it
Glad to hear it, thank you :)
watched the whole thing JL looks awesome great video!!!
Thanks, we're glad to hear it :)
Probably the best how to video i have seen to date 👍🏼
Glad to hear it :)
What a difference 2.5" makes! (that's what she said!) That thing looks like a beat now. Great wheel choice, too.
Also, great install video! A lot of times I find these boring to watch, or lacking information. Yours was just right, informative enough to get the whole scope of the job without feeling dragged out. Good tips on using the duct tape to hold the nut to the wrench, and turning the steering wheel to align the track bar. I've used both in the past when working on my old ZJ. Also, if tape isn't handy, grease will work, and even I've even used a piece of gum, haha. Only thing I would really do differently is put anti-seize on EVERY SINGLE BOLT that I removed/replaced. Maybe not so important where you live, but in New England where I am it could mean the difference between getting the bolt out trouble free next time, or breaking it. I use that stuff on EVERYTHING.
Awesome informative video! Thanks. JL looks great. Nice look with the 37s.
Thank you, glad you found it to be informative.
This was excellent ! you're a master mechanic, thank you ! :)
LOL!! Just a guy who can turn a wrench or two :)
I have the same JL and love to watch the transformation from when you first bought it. I can dream about what mine COULD look like someday lol. Keep up the great videos
Awesome :)
Gosh darnit I envy you. All those Jeeps and a new JL that you can afford to already modify. Keep up the good work - I enjoy your videos!
LOL!! Glad you enjoy our videos :)
Picked up a sport yesterday! manual trans/ soft top/ electrical group/ and rear dana 44 options. Love it.
Awesome, congrats to you :)
Wow, what a great and useful video. Bravo!
Thank you, so glad to hear it :)

Really good instructions especially regarding the adjustable control arms and how to measure them etc. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Great video Eddie as usual
Thanks, we're glad you liked it :)
Excellent video love the wheel package
Thank you :)
You are killing me why you make it look so easy I'm cussing and struggling and three beers later finally got one side done, there are some helpful tips that you show that I wish I would have known before I did mine
LOL!! I've been doing this for a long time. Glad to hear some of my tips helped you out.
jimmy jk332 , waiting for a diesel, but like watching his videos, he's a real professional.
Boy, you really seem to hate Wayalife. I mean you REALLY went off the deep end on a comment that didn't warrant this amount of butthurt.
Wayalife So are you gonna stay with a short arm lift on Jet Li?
Most complete how to I’ve seen. This video should come with the kit.
LOL! Thank you, we're so glad we could be of help to you.
You do a great job thanks for imparting your knowledge.
Glad to hear that you found our video to be informative.
Beast mode activated! 👊
LOL! :)
Outstanding video!
Thank you :)
It's nice working on a new Jeep, great video
LOL - yes, it really is.
Excellent video. I don't even own a Jeep, and I watched the whole thing!
LOL!! No kidding? That's awesome :)
Great video keep up the good work brother
Thank you :)
Simply ,,,, Impressive !!
Excellent vid. Subscribed!!
Thank you.
Great job man 👍
Thank you :)
Great video! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you, we're glad that you found it to be informative :)
Thanks for sharing this!
Glad you enjoyed it.
I had to go to the end of the video just to see how it looks. Really enjoying the look of this jeep.
LOL - really?? You can see a ton more pics here: jlwrangler.com/showthread.php?840-JET-Li-LIFTED-PICS-EVO-2-5-quot-JL-Wrangler-Boost-Stage-4-Lift-Kit
Wayalife thanks
19:44 I love the scuffs on the wheels already from rocks!!!
Awesome step by step video(s)
Thank you :)
you make it look easy :)
Great video. That looks awesome! 37's with a moderate lift is what I had in mind. Looking forward to see how Jet Lee performs with this set up and what you may need to do with the fenders.
Nothing needs to be done with the fenders but the rear fender liners do need to be reshaped a bit to prevent rubbing.
Looks great! Now your ready for anything!
LOL! I don't know about "anything" but definitely ready for a lot :)
It’s all in the hands of the master. And you my friend, are a master at four wheeling!
P.S. I’ve always thought you sound like Warren Miller. I think that’s another reason why I love your videos. Haha keep them coming bro!
Thank you for that, I really appreciate it - I'm a HUGE fan of Warren Miller.
Pretty bad-ass looking, and great job on the video-instruction.
Thank you :)
Awesome vidéo and explain it well. Thanks
Glad to hear it :)
Superbe travail bien fait j’adore 👍 très bien la JL vive les usa 🇺🇸
Great video. It is nicely explain how to install it
Thanks!
Awesome step by step video!!!! best part was the duck tape trick
LOL!! Glad to have been able to share one of my tricks :)
Badass jl brother
Thank you
Dang Eddie
looks awesome! Man you guys do a fantastic job installing and filming... I can watch people wrenching on jeeps all day long lol.... cheers
LOL!! Thank you :)
Great Vid. Can not wait till they arrive downunder...steve
Hope that you guys get them sooner than later.
Wow. Really wish you had done something like this with your JKs! This is awesome.
LOL!! Are you kidding? If not, I may not of had videos but I have TONS of written write-ups available here: wayalife.com/showthread.php/29935-Jeep-JK-Wrangler-Write-Up-Index
Wayalife oh I know about the write ups. I've used a few of them. I'm a forum member. Just that I would like the option for videos as well.
NICE JOB!!!!
Thank you
Nice build Eddie.....!
Thank you :)
Excellent video. I feel 100% confident that I can do this myself. Have you guys thought about doing a video showing which tools and spare parts you carry on the trail?
We'll see what we can do
great video all d time..
Thank you
Great video :-)
Great tutorial , thank you…
Glad it was helpful!
looks Great
Thank you :)
Nice video
Thanks
I think the 38's ive run in the past is a good compromise.I'm ready to pull the trigger on a new ZL1. The Jeep keeps pulling me back. Looking at JL's tomorrow! Great video as usual!!!
You make it look so easy and quick too. Somehow I don’t think it would go as smoothly on my 7 year old JK. Great video though.
LOL!! It helps that everything is new and easy to work on for sure.
Dude, Jeep should create a "Custom Build Division" where they should hire you and put you in charge. Jeep Wrangler sales will triple in no time. Awesome man. Keep it up. Cheers! :)
LOL!! Truly flattered. Thank you :)
Awesome content. It looked as though some areas may be better to place the Zerc fittings down. New subscriber here. I'm itching for a jeep and still a die hard Toyota fan. Builds like this might make me pull the trigger on at least a jk. Keep up the awesome vids.
LOL!! Well sure, it'd make it easier to grease but it'd also make it easier for rocks to knock them right off too. The ONLY zerk that's near impossible to get to point up is the front lower arm at the axle mount and there are ways to deal with that. ALL the others can be reached.
Nice install video! Awesome that you give the socket sizes too! Time saver! Do you think you would be able to fit 37,s with the 2” Mopar lift? I was thinking about that lift to avoid any dealer warranty issues. They love to void warrantees for aftermarket add-ons. I saw your video that you didn’t have any major rubbing issues with the 2.5” Evo.
Unfortunately, no, I don't think you could run 37's with the 2" Mopar lift if only because the bump stop extensions will be too short.
Wow...it's beautiful!!! Jet Li is one bad ass looking JL now! The JL is really growing on me even if a Rubicon isn't in the budget...Seems like the new JL Sport and Sahara are a bit more beefy than the JK.
Oh yeah, the Sports and Saharas are real nice too :)
Looks good
Thanks :)
I think that setup is perfect for a DD Jeep
I agree :)
Great video and I'm excited to see where y'all are taking the build! What coils and shocks are you planning on running in the future after the spacers?
Not sure, have to see what's available.
Great videos! The only thing I would never trust my life with anything from harbor freight. I have had several heavy duty tools crumble in my hand!
LOL!! My jack stands have worked well for me over the years but then, for this video, I didn't use them :)
excelente tu vídeo, cual kit me recomiendas para mi XK, Jeep commander 4.7l 4x4 limited, que modelo sería, tambien quiero llantas 35", muchas gracias.
Friggin sweet
Thanks :)
